No, Andrew Garfield Is Not Starring in That
Given that he starred in three separate buzzy movies in 2021 (Spider-Man: No Way Home, The Eyes of Tammy Faye, and Tick, Tick … Boom!, for which he was Oscar nominated), you’d be forgiven for assuming that Andrew Garfield was still constantly on a screen near you. Not so much! He starred in no movies in 2022 or ’23, just We Live in Time in 2024, and even his slate moving forward is smaller than we expected. In a January 2 profile in British GQ, Garfield took the time to dispel rumo(u)rs of his involvement in two upcoming projects.
First off, he claimed that he will not star in Spider-Man 4, though “I know no one’s gonna trust anything I say from now on,” given that he lied about being in the previous one. We choose to believe him anyway. Plus, he says he’s not starring in Martin Scorsese’s upcoming Jesus epic, A Life of Jesus. “There was a rumour,” Garfield told GQ, “It’s not true to my knowledge.” Would that happen without your knowledge, Andy?
Still, that doesn’t mean you’ll be entirely bereft of Andrew Garfield content in the near future: He’s starring in an upcoming Luca Guadagnino movie with Julia Roberts and an adaptation of the book The Magic Faraway Tree by Enid Blyton with Claire Foy. “I like working as well,” he told GQ. “You can’t just keep waiting for Scorsese to call, ’cause he makes a movie every three years and a lot of the time Leo DiCaprio is in it.” Okay, but to be fair, there are supporting parts in those movies. Maybe next time, Andrew Garfield can be the one who lets DiCaprio do coke off his crack.
